If you bring the connection closer to the front on the shoulder elastic (backplate to chest) it will bring the shoulders inwards at the front at rest It will be entirely up to your GML (garrison membership liaison) who will look after base approval, I would suggest making sure any additional strapping can not be seen from the outside of the armor.

I would suggest it's pulled off, you can see the strap on his other shoulder Really depends on your size and armor as to how much movement you can have, remember too that the armor had some flex as we see in a lot of scenes. See how Han's chest has bulged We can only show your references as to how they were made, you take away what you will

Congratulations and welcome to Expert Infantry and the EI Honor Gallery

Congrats Rachel! Welcome to expert infantry! You're looking great, and we'd love to help you attain the rank of Centurion if you're up for it! If you want some rockers to commemorate your EI achievement, you can order them at the link below.

Congratulations Rachel! Welcome to EIB ranks

Hi Dorian, We typically use imgur for posting photos as the server has very limited storage space. Use the direct link for the photo and paste it into your post and the photo will be tehre I don't think that there was another method of securing the shoulder bells on screen. When fully kitted up, many troopers have very limited range of motion in their arms.

Hi Rachel, and thank you for your EIB application! You did an amazing job of making the requested corrections. CRL and EIB Application Requirements: All required photos have been submitted, and on behalf of the entire D.O. staff we are pleased to welcome you to the rank of Expert Infantry. Congratulations! Other-Armor Fit/Assembly; In this area we review observations made by your fellow troopers and the DO team. Some observations may lead to suggestions to improve the overall look of your armor, and please keep in mind that we consider both text (CRL) and pictures (screen caps/reference images) when reviewing submissions. Helmet: For the brow trim on your helmet, it is sitting a bit low as was seen on the hero helmets. The stunt helmets typically had a slightly higher brow. You may want to adjust this for a more screen accurate look. References Your helmet is also sitting a bit high on your head. Typically, this can be corrected by removing some of the padding in the top of the helmet. It will also help with visibility some as well. References Arms: For a more screen accurate look, it would be recommended to try and match the space between the biceps and forearm armor pieces with the distance between the forearms and hand plates. You could likely achieve this by simply shortening the strapping between the shoulder bell and biceps pieces top bring the biceps and forearms up slightly to increase the gap at the wrist. References *************************************************** Centurion Requirements: In this section we prepare you for our highest tier of approval. Because Centurion photos must show more detail than EIB, items pertaining to Level 3 might be seen there and not here and additional photos may be required. We try to point out all that we can from what we are able to clearly see, but the final accuracy is the responsibility of the trooper. Shoulder Armor: We would like to see your shoulder armour brought in a bit closer to the shoulder bridges for a more screen accurate look. References Forearms: There appears to be a small amount of return edge in a few spots on your forearms. These will need to be removed for Centurion Level approval. This should be a quick sanding session. CRL L3: No return edge on the inside of the front of the forearm is allowed. References Abdominal Armor: For level 3 approval, we will need you to close up the gap between your abdomen and kidney armor on the left side. Also ensure when dressing that the rivets line up between the 2 armor pieces as well. This should be a fairly simple strapping adjustment. CRL L3: Ideally there no gap between the abdomen and kidney armor. Abdominal and Kidney Plate align horizontally at top. References Belt: Your belt will need to sit a bit higher for centurion level approval. The top of the ABS belt should sit at the bottom of the lowest button on the abdominal control panels. A slight adjustment to the velcro you already have in place should assist the belt to sit in the correct position. CRL L3: The top of the ABS ammo belt should sit at or just above the bottom of the central and vertical abdomen button panels. References Blaster: Your blaster has some weathering on the T tracks and the grip. It will need to be removed for level 3 approval. A bit of mineral spirits to carefully wipe down the T tracks and a bit of frst paint on the grip should solve the issue. CRL L3: The blaster may have minor weathering or base metal exposure however, T-tracks and grips shall be of a black plastic appearance with no silver/metallic weathering allowed. References

Every picture we have from production made suits indicate they were attached to the elastic shoulder straps via a snap. Check out our gallery. https://www.whitearmor.net/forum/gallery/category/24-anh-tk-reference/

yeah.. i'll probably have to redo the whole tear and I think for the bleeding I just added too much paint thinner
